Nintendo’s Japanese site has officially revealed that the Game Boy Advance classic Sonic Advance, seen by many fans to be the best post classic era 2D title, will be hitting the Japanese Wii U eShop on February 18th. The game is priced at ¥702 ($5.90/£3.90) and is set to take up 200MB of storage space, much larger in size than the original game but remember this includes a digital copy of the manual.
There is no indication of the game releasing to the West just yet, and there is no sign of the sequels, but we have our fingers crossed and as soon as we hear something we’ll be sure to share it! Me? I’d love to see SEGA’s entire library of Game Boy Advance games on the Wii U. From Jet Grind Radio to Gunstar Super Heroes. A man can dream…

I absolutely love the Sonic Advance series. Hope they bring all 3 over here.
Really hope they bring all three to the US. I still play Sonic Advance 3 and even have an extra copy to link up my GBA and GBA SP for co-op action. I doubt they will do that with eShop versions, still nice to have an option to play it on a more modern system.
I know this is for Sonic Advance, still I wish all three would make it. Maybe even Sega’s other GBA games.
